Clinical Trial Description

All patients will be randomly distributed into two equal groups using a random number generator from computer-based randomization software. the probiotic group (n=40) received probiotic preparation twice daily (Lacteol Forte; Rameda, Egypt) as sachets containing 10 billion colony-forming units (CFU) of Lactobacillus fermentum and Lactobacillus delbruekii for 12 weeks added to a weight-dependent dose of standard treatment (Atomoxetine), and the 40 patients in the control group will not receive the probiotic and on a weight-dependent dose of atomoxetine. ;
